Why copying French style

Why copying French style never works. You bought the trench coats, the ballet flat, the striped sweater, maybe even the basket bag. So why don't you feel French? Because the secret was never the outfit. French women don't have the je ne sais quoi because they wear certain clothes. They have it because they know themselves. They know what suits them and what doesn't. What feels authentic. They're not getting dressed to become someone else. They're getting dressed to become more of themselves. That's why two women can wear the exact same outfit and only one would have the je ne sais quoi. So it's not about copying the wardrobe. It's about understanding the woman wearing it.
